"I don’t have ulterior motives. But you, following around like a piece of chewing gum, what’s your purpose? If you’re smart, you better scram."
Gazing at Fu Ying and Qian Wei, Shi Xiaole’s tone grew colder.
Even a clay figurine has a temper. The repeated provocations by the duo had already caused Shi Xiaole to feel sowhat irritated, especially now, with a tiger lurking at his side.
"Scram? Try saying that again."
Fu Ying narrowed his eyes, and the atmosphere on the scene instantly turned chillingly cold, startling the Left Sect masters who hastily retreated, though their hearts were filled sowhat with anticipation.
For the past few days of ambush, Shi Xiaole had been a bystander from start to finish, and this had stirred their resentnt. Just before this, he was also acting high and mighty. Such a person deserves to be taught a lesson.
"Zong Yue, you better kick away the stone yourself. Trust , or you’ll be in big trouble."
Confident of his victory, Qian Wei clenched his fists.
Sigh!
Shi Xiaole sighed deeply.
Why is it that there are always so fools who pride themselves on their ignorance, leading both themselves and others astray?
The person behind the screen, with an inconspicuous and slightly disoriented breath, indicated he was seriously injured, but Shi Xiaole’s instinct told him that this was a dying tiger.
Originally, all he had to do was walk quietly past, and maybe, out of caution and uncertainty, the other party would choose to endure it. At most, he would just find another place later.
But now, forced by Fu Ying and Qian Wei, Shi Xiaole had no choice but to make up his mind.
Between a dying tiger and a lamb, he believed even a fool would make the right choice.
"Brat, co here!"
As he stepped forward with his left foot, Fu Ying’s eyes turned golden. Two rays of golden light shot out rapidly, and if you looked closely, you could see the shadowy figures of a sword and a knife within the gold light.
Despite looking down on him in his words, he didn’t dare act similarly. In order to intimidate Shi Xiaole, Fu Ying used seventy percent of his strength in making his first move, believing it should be enough to deal with Shi Xiaole.
"Die!"
Ignoring the golden light, Shi Xiaole swung and pointed his sword.
With two snaps.
The sharp golden light was split in half, and at the sa ti, a wisp of Sword Qi penetrated Fu Ying’s body, instantly turning into a light breeze and dissipating into thin air.
"Er, er, you ..."
His eyes bulging out and his arrogant expression frozen, Fu Ying’s face was filled with shock and disbelief.
With a ’plop’ sound!
His body split into two halves, but no blood was spilled, as the Sword Qi was too fast, so fast that even the blood didn’t have ti to flow out. Until his last mont, Fu Ying could not believe the outright strength of Zong Yue.
With a hiss!
The scene fell silent, followed by an intense gasp for air.
Qian Wei’s excitent had just reached its peak, but the sudden sight of Fu Ying, who was right next to him, being sliced into two, caused him to freeze in shock. His mind was buzzing, like a swarm of bees rushing around in chaos.
"No... "
Before he could get the sound out of his throat, Shi Xiaole had already launched his second attack.
The next mont, a perfectly good head was thrown into the sky, marking the end of Qian Wei.
"Zong, Zong Wei, we are willing to loyally serve you forever, we won’t reveal the secret."
"Elder Zong, please spare us."
The masters of Left Sect were so scared they were trying to crawl away, so beca weak in the knees, and collapsed on the spot.
Is this Zong Yue’s real strength? What Mo Wan, what Xiao Yujian, they are nothing in front of him.
Sighing, Shi Xiaole initiated the Heaven and Earth Changing Great thod, causing this group of people to faint. When they wake up, they will have lost the mory of this incident.
"Boy, you’re too soft-hearted."
Only Shi Xiaole could sense the murderous intent being withdrawn from behind the screen, with a voice of rebuke following from that direction.
Shi Xiaole quickly responded, "Senior, there are many people from Left Sect nearby, let take you away."
"With your cultivation, you can’t carry ! Besides, it’s not easy for you to infiltrate the Left Sect, I, a dying person, why should I expose you?"
Shi Xiaole hung his head.
He stubbornly refused to expose the other person, even going as far as killing two Ghost Guards for it, all in the hopes of making the other party believe that he was a spy for Right Sect.
In reality, Zong Yue was only going with the flow.
"With your age and ability, you must be a Ghost Guard, right?"
"Exactly."
"Good, very good."
The person behind the wall suddenly said, "Quick, I want you to swear that you will always be loyal to the Young Master, and never betray him!"
Shi Xiaole was stirred and imdiately made the oath in Zong Yue’s na.
A booklet suddenly fell into his hands, the person behind the wall said, "Go now, this place will have people arriving at any mont. Rember, deliver this booklet to the Young Master!"
Eager to leave, Shi Xiaole upon hearing this, bowed solemnly and imdiately left.
Not long after he left, the people on the ground all exploded into a mist of blood.
From within the wall erged a robust man wielding a long knife. With a pale face, he laughed heartily, "Your plot has failed, kill!"
Everyone was horrified to find that a huge battle had again taken place deep in Chongyang Mountain. This ti, though, the battle only lasted a brief mont before it was over.
"Damn, that guy self-detonated."
In front of a broken wall stood three people, based on their clothes, two were Elders of the Left Sect of Ghost Lethal Sect. The other wore a silver robe and a silver mask.
The one who spoke was this man in silver.
"Since Yuchi Chong has self-detonated, the account book he had should also be destroyed."
An Elder from Left Sect reassured him.
"I know Yuchi Chong, he must have hidden the account book in advance or given it to soone else."
The Silver Robe person’s voice was calm and indifferent, but the two elders felt an intense chill.
"Search! It doesn’t matter if it’s your Left Sect or our Silver Robe Alliance, every person involved in this plan must be thoroughly searched, no exceptions!"
"But..."
"You can refuse, but if the lord blas us, you’d better beg for rcy."
The Silver Robe person turned and stepped away, disappearing into the mountains in a blink of an eye.
The two Elders of the Left Sect exchanged a glance and shook their heads reluctantly.
If it weren’t for the Silver Robe Alliance blocking the news, the Right Sect might have noticed. Even the defeat of Yuchi Chong was partly due to the help of the Silver Robe person. The force behind this person should not be provoked.
So, let them do their search.
...
Arriving at a secluded place, Shi Xiaole couldn’t help his curiosity and finally opened the booklet. The contents that t his eyes made his heart jolt.
The booklet wasn’t a martial arts manual but an account book, recording countless transactions for weapons and lands.
It was common knowledge that any private organization in the Flying Horse Dynasty was not allowed to have more than 100,000 weapons. Although all top forces have already exceeded this number in reality, the number doesn’t exceed 500,000.
But the weapons transactions recorded in the booklet had, at a minimum, exceeded ten million. The land area involved was even startling, even extending to the borders of the Western Region.
"Stockpiling land and training troops?"
This seed like the obvious answer, but because of this, Shi Xiaole felt the booklet in his hand was unbearably heavy.
People say that martial artists lead a carefree and luxurious life, but that’s only when they don’t provoke the court. If anyone thinks that the court allows martial sectors to expand because it’s incapable, then they are greatly mistaken.
The Mu Royal Family of the past rose to power through martial arts. Their Supre Pavilion was the number one power in the martial world. After the establishnt of the Flying Horse Dynasty, the Supre Pavilion gradually faded from the martial arts world.
But no fool would think that the Supre Pavilion had been disbanded.
Up until now, no one truly knew how many martial arts experts the court had secretly gathered, nor did they know the extent of the hidden power under the court’s control.
And the mysterious person indicated in this book seed to be planning a major conspiracy, isn’t this startling?
However, why did such an item fall into Yuchi Chong’s hands?
Without having the ti to think too much, Shi Xiaole put the account book into his system space, made a detour in the mountains, and then regrouped with the others. He declared that the person who was following him had died in the aftermath of their previous battle.
Before leaving Chongyang Mountain, all the surviving mbers of the Left Sect were searched. Despite the complaints, Shi Xiaole was secretly relieved, having guessed what the superiors wanted to uncover.
Just after the Left Sect left, a large number of people flooded into Chongyang Mountain.
"Search, search ticulously. Even if it takes a lot of ti, dig three feet into the ground, but find that thing for ."
The Silver Robe man leading the group relayed his order to every individual.
